Understand Why Poem by Marla Smith

Why do I keep asking the same question?
The answer is so plain to see
Some day’s I wonder why
Why I’m here?
I don’t want to be here
Why do you keep saying its easy here
When its not
Why don’t you put yourself in my shoes?
I know you can’t fill them
You have told to many lies
You don’t understand this
Why I stay here
Why I keep doing this
Why I’m a fighter
I’ve learned to never back down
And I’ve learned from the best too
I’ve learned from you
It may hurt a bit for you to hear this
No matter what you do or say
It don’t hurt me
All you do is cause more scars on my heart
I know you never really happy with me
Now you know why
Now you know why I’m a fighter
I will always fight for what I love
And who I love.
